Nikki Haley, who had suspended her campaign before primary day, got fewer than 80,000 votes in the state.
It is very easy to read far more into primary election results than is warranted. There’s a natural inclination to do so, of course; people are curious about the general election and here are some actual votes from actual voters, so let’s figure out what they mean! You can appreciate the thought process of that first person, curious about the future, who noticed a weird pattern in the tea leaves at the bottom of their cup.
Another indicator: About 2 percent of Republican primary voters were Black, but 12 percent of 2020 Democratic primary voters who voted in the Republican primary this year were Black.If most of those votes went to Haley, it accounts for a big chunk of her support. Statewide, she got about 78,000 votes, meaning that — if every 2020 Democratic primary voter backed her — it would constitute about a quarter of the votes she received.
